1 Samuel 9:2 in Context — 1 Samuel 9
1 E havia um homem de Benjamim, homem valente, o qual se chamava Quis, filho de Abiel, filho de Zeror, filho de Becorate, filho de Afia, filho de um homem de Benjamim.
2 E tinha ele um filho que se chamava Saul, rapaz e belo, que entre os filhos de Israel não havia outro mais belo que ele; do ombro acima sobrepujava a qualquer um do povo.
3 E haviam-se perdido as asnas de Quis, pai de Saul; pelo que disse Quis a Saul seu filho: Toma agora contigo algum dos criados, e levanta-te, e vai a buscar as asnas.
4 E ele passou ao monte de Efraim, e dali à terra de Salisa, e não as acharam. Passaram logo pela terra de Saalim, e tampouco. Depois passaram pela terra de Benjamim, e não as encontraram.
